Answer:

b = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle.

The square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other 2 sides, that is

b² + 12² = 15²

b² + 144 = 225 ( subtract 144 from both sides )

b² = 81 ( take the square root of both sides )

b = \sqrt{81} = 9

A line passes through (-1,5) and (1,3) what is the equation of the line
chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

y = -x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

(-1,5)...x1 = -1 and y1 = 5

(1,3)....x2 = 1 and y2 = 3

slope(m) = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1) = (3 - 5) / (1 - (-1) = -2 / (1 + 1) = -2/2 = -1

y = mx + b

slope(m) = -1

u can use either of ur points...I will use (1,3)...x = 1 and y = 3

now we sub and find b, the y int

3 = -1(1) + b

3 = -1 + b

3 + 1 = b

4 = b

ur equation is : y = -x + 4 <===

New York City is approximately 205 miles from Washington, D.C. How far apart will these cities appear on a map with the scale 1
gavmur [86]

Answer: 4.1 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are informed that New York City is approximately 205 miles from Washington, D.C.

The distance that these cities will appear on a map with the scale 1 in: 50 miles will be represented by x.

Therefore, x:205 = 1:50

Cross multiply

x/205 = 1/50

50x = 205

x = 205/50

x = 4.1 inches

The answer is 4.1 inches
